She could have dropped the baby off at a fire station with no questions asked, under Texas law.

Should have killed it when it was still in the womb and she would be walking free. Unbelievable where this country has evolved ...

And, there are how many couples out there who would gladly adopt, love and cherish a baby? Did no one speak to this woman about adoption? Did no one tell her just how difficult it is to be a single mom?

There was a foolproof way to prevent that, but I guess we can't expect people who are taught that they are just "lucky animals" to control their breeding habits.

There is no moral difference between killing it before it’s born and after, look for more of this to start happening and then be accepted.

I guess she couldn't handle the stress of keeping her knees together either. Now she gets three hots and a cot at our expense, perfect.

4 and a half months earlier they could have pulled the baby half-way out feet first and sucked it’s brain out (before the child came ALL THE WAY out), and she would be free as a bird

They’ll just put her in a comfy mental ward, just like Andrea Yates.
